When they blinked and rescinded the orders for Major Cook, they admitted the truth of his claim.

If someone had refused to serve in Iraq in 2003 by claiming Bush never legally won the 2000 election and Bush had rescinded their orders, that's all we would have heard about and would still be hearing about.

Not to mention, both hospitals in Hawaii have been named as the hospital Obama was born! When I asked my mom told me Swedish hospital in Seattle Washington...

The inescapable fact is that it would take Mister Obama a lot less time and effort and money to produce his original form birth certificate that it has taken Mister Avlon to write, edit, and publish this article in which he accuses the birthers of obsessive, unreasonable, and irrational behavior.

"Throughout the 1950s, 60s and 70s, the American Left and the news media smeared J. Edgar Hoover, Whittaker Chambers, Joseph McCarthy and Roy Cohn as lunatics and perverts. Countless documentaries have portrayed 'McCarthyism; as a 'witch hunt.' Yet Venona has proved beyond any doubt that McCarthy was right, at least on one point: that there were hundreds of Soviet agents in our government. Their goal was undermine democracy throughout the world, and they could have been successful."

Wonder if the author had this much concern over all the Bush-hatred that was going on for the last 8
years.


Before he worked for Giuliani, he worked for the Clintons.

“Major Cook—a distinguished combat veteran—appears to have been a willing pawn in the Birthers’ efforts to bring attention to their cause. He re-enlisted as a reservist in May, with the apparent intention of carrying out this political performance-art litigation.”

What a doofus writer. Officers don’t re-enlist.

Avlon appears to be a Parker/Noonan Repub...with a healthy side of Meghan McCainism, IOW a roach in the soupbowl!
Typical Kathleen Parker praise on Avalon’s Bio sheet:
“Americans who are fed up with the Ann Coulter/Michael Moore school of debate and are looking for someone to articulate a commonsense, middle path, may have found their voice in John Avlon.”

There’s more reason to believe Barack Hussein Obama was born in Keyna than there is to believe in climate change.

Birthers are Birth Citizens.

I’d be proud to be called a Birth Citizen or Citizen by Birth.

The president is supposed to be a Birth Citizen by a specific requirement in the U.S. Constitution.

I quit reading/listening to anything this dude has to say. I don’t remember exactly why now, and I am not reading this article to remind me.

You must read “Witness” by Whittaker Chambers. See my Freeppage.

Seriously, this was the same political road I took.

The author of the report, and apparently, the CNN interviewer (I didn't see the interview), continue with the usual tactic, belittling people who wonder why a president is allowed to conceal his history, but providing a smokescreen for the more pertinent fact so clearly repeated in many supreme court cases, in the 14th amendment, and by Patrick Leahy in 2008 Senate Res. 511 - a president must be a “natural born citizen,” which means born on US soil of parentS who are citizens. http://leahy.senate.gov/press/200804/041008c.html Obama never hid that his father was never, and never intended to be, a US citizen. He has counted on his friends in the courts and the press to derail discovery of the critical truth of the meaning of natural born citizen.

Don't believe those who claim there is “no definition of natural born citizen” in the constitution. That is obfuscation. The natural born citizen provision recommended by John Jay was repeated verbatim in supreme court decisions, and its source as a ‘term-of-art’ cited by many justices. ‘Terms-of-art’ are not redefined, both because everyone knew, when the constitution was written, what was meant, and because the length of the constitution would have become unwieldy. Find “The Venus”, an 1816 decision by Chief Justice John Marshall. http://supreme.justia.com/us/12/253/ He defines natural born citizen and praises its source, Vattel’s Law of Nations, as the most clear definition of the term.

An Obama supporter, whose law firm has received consideral business since Obama's election, wrote a brief arguing that Article II Section 1 natural born is a “stupid provision”, because it could be racist, or doesn't conform to modern globalist societies. Find Sarah Herlihy’s Chicago-Kent Law Review Article from 2005 where she refers to Cass Sunstein, Thomas Friedman, Barney Frank and others. (Kent Law has scrubbed the article but it is still available here http://www.scribd.com/doc/12873456/Amending-the-Natural-Born-Citizen-Requirement-Sarah-p-Herlihy-Feb-22-2006 ) They all know; they believe the constitution is antiquated and so ignored or challenged it; they believe we aren't smart enough to find the truth, and have chosen to keep us busy with the hidden birth certificate (by they, I include Congress, every member of which should be assumed, though they deny it, to know the truth.)

The sad thing is that useful idiots like Avion would still support zero if his mother and father came back to life and said he was born in kenya.

Obama Derangement Syndrome is not healthy for our democracy—it is pathological hatred of the president posing as patriotism.

Ok... you say "pathological hatred for the president" and I say an unapologetic love for the constitution, let's not argue about these small items.

In the meantime could you just ask Barack to release his BIRTH CERTIFICATE, you know - the one that has the name of the hospital and delivering doctor on it?

No doctor, nurse, hospital employee has come forth to say "I was there".

My husband and I know the names of the doctors that delivered us.
